Answer:

mBCD = 28°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle mBFD inscribes the arc mBD, so we have that:

mBFD = mBD/2

76 = mBD/2

mBD = 152°

The angle mBOD is a central angle related to the arc mBD, so we have that:

mBOD = mBD = 152°

In the quadrilateral BODC, the sum of internal angles needs to be equal to 360° (property of all convex quadrilaterals). The angles mCBO and mCDO are right angles, because EDC and ABC are tangents to the circle.

So, we have that:

mBOD + mCDO + mBCD + mCBO = 360

152 + 90 + mBCD + 90 = 360

mBCD = 360 - 90 - 90 - 152

mBCD = 28°

An engineer is designing an arch-shaped gate for the entrance to an amusement park. The gate must be 80 feet wide and 25 feet ta
Tom [10]
1) the form of the equation may be written as y = A(X - Xo)(X - X1)

Where Xo and X1 are the two roots of the equation.


2) We can fix the system of coordinates so that the vertex is in the middle of the gate => Xo = - 40 and X1 = +40


=> y = A (X + 40) (X - 40) = A (X^2 - 1600) 


3) The height, at X = 0 is 25

=> A(0 - 1600) = 25


=> -1600A = 25 => A = -25 / 1600 = - 1/64


4) The equation is y =  - [1/64] (X^2 - 1600)


5) You can present it in different equivalent forms.

Some of those other forms are:

1) - 64y = (x^2 - 1600)

2) x^2 = - 64y + 1600

3) X^2 = - 64 (y - 25)

Suppose you have 20 coins that total $3.00. Some coins are nickels and some are quarters. Which of the following pairs of equati
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

n + q = 20

.05n + .25q = 3.00

5n + 25q = 300

 n + q = 20

5n + 25q = 300

-5n - 5q = -100

20q = 200

q = 10 quarters

n + 10 = 20

n = 10 nickels

(10 nickels, 10 quarters)

Write an absolute value equation to satisfy the given solution set shown on a number line.
aivan3 [116]

Answer: IX - 4I ≤ 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In the numer line we can see that our possible values of x are in the range:

0 ≤ x ≤ 8

And we want to find an absolute value equation such that this set is the set of possible solutions.

An example can be:

IX - 4I ≤ 4

To construct this, we first find the midpoint M of our set, in this case is 4.

Then we write:

Ix - MI  ≤ IMI

Notice that i am using the minor and equal sign, this is because the black dots means that the values x = 0 and x = 8 are included, if the dots were empty dots, it would be an open set and we should use the <  > signs.

Function f is a cosine function with period 8π, amplitude 3, and a local maximum at f(0) = –3. What is the equation of the midli
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there is no indication of a shift in the graph of f(x) = 3cos(-0.25x), then the midline must be the normal midline for a cosine or sine function which is: y = 0.
